Summary
This is a slow burn Shakarian with lots of drama to go around. It's smutty AF and rather free in terms of sexuality. We'll have plenty of threesomes and kink exploration to keep your hungry mouths filled.
These stories uses my personal Shepard—Marika "Mika" Shepard—and we follow her at different points during her life. There's a red thread in this entire series. It's meant to be read in order for proper context, but, of course, you don't have to do that.
Themes: Relationship-focused—romantic, friendly, and familial—morally ambiguous choices, emotional, drama-packed, angsty, AU from work 5, dialogue-forward, with enough smut to keep you bone dry on the inside from work 6 and onwards.
Read order and short overview in the series notes.
